In this episode of the Digital Business Evolution Podcast, Jess is joined by the incredible Mel Abraham. Mel is a CPA and founder of Thoughtpreneur Academy and Business Breakthrough Academy where he helps entrepreneurs bring their businesses into the world and build the lifestyle they truly want to live. After finding and conquering a cancerous tumor in his bladder in June 2019 Mel began to teach his The Affluence Blueprint to help entrepreneurs find financial liberation and peace of mind. This process is what he has used to build his business and more importantly focus on what is more important which is not money, but time.
